A Philadelphia umbrella manufacturer
says there are about $500, 900 umbrellas
and parasols sold in this country every
year. America has gone ahead of other
nations in manufacturing them, and not
more than 10 per cent. are imported.
The Sheffield umbrella, however, still
leads the world. Domestic makers have
to figure very closely, and were they to
raise prices 10 per cent. the country
would be deluged with foreign material.
1t is remarkable circumstance than only
one person has ever made any money on
any patent on an umbrella. That man is
old Sammy Fox, of Sheffield, Eng,
undoubtedly the best known umbrella
maker in the world. He made the first
paragon frame, and he got royalty
from every one made for fourteen years.
An umbrella goes through many hands
before it is sold. No one firm makes an
entire umbrella. The ribs and braces are
made in one factory, the sticks in an
other and the little catches that slide
along the stick in still another, while the
silk is imported. Fashion has a great
deal to do with the business.-Boston

The superstition that human beings
should sleep with their heads to the north

a scientific fact They affirm
that each human system is in itself an
electric battery, the head being one of
the electrodes. the feet the other. Their
proof was discovered from experiments
which the Academy Of Sciences was al
lowed to make on the body of man who
was guillotined. This was taken the in
slant it fell and placed upon pivot free
to move as it might. The head part,
after a little vacillation, turned to the
north, and the body then remained sta
tionary. 1t was turned half way round

"Ten years ago only one store in a
hundred had what is known as a tea
faster; now there is no tea house of any
whatever which has not in
one of its employees a good tea faster, :"
said a large wholesale tea dealer. "A
thousand chests of tea will be received !:
the tea faster then gets in his work. A
little tea is taken and put in scale; just
enough to balance a five cent piece. 1t
is then placed in cups and boiling water
is poured over the tea. The faster then
takes a sip from each cup and writes
down on piece of paper his idea of its
worth.
'"No two tasters. however, agree to the
value of tea, especially the black Oolong,
which is mostly drank in this city"
Does the tea have any injurious effect
on the taster:"
sometimes he will get hold of posi-
lively rank grade, and then he will spit
it out as soon as he can. Frequent tast-
ing often makes a man very nervous,
and most of these men soon acquire a
positive dislike for tea and drink nothing
but coffee There are connoisseurs of tea
as well as whisky Philadelphia News.

WONDERS OF THE SEA.
Its Great Depth-Deceptive waves-The
Power of Evaporat on.

Its Great Depth-Deceptive waves-The
Power of Evaporat on.
The sea occupies three-ffths of the
surface of the earth. At the depth of
about 3, 500 feet waves are not felt. The
temperature is the same, varying only a
trifle from the ice of the pole to the sun
of the equator. A mile down the water
has pressure of over ton to the square
inch. If box of six feet deep was filed
with sea water and allowed to evaporate
under the sun, there would be two inches
of salt left on the bottom. Taking the
average depth of the ocean to be three
miles, there would be layer of pure salt
$50 feet thick on the bed of the Atlantic.
The water is colder at the bottom than at
the surface. In the many bays on the
coast of Norway the water often freezes
at the bottom before it does above.
Waves are very deceptive. To look at
them in storm one would think the
water travelled. The water stays in the
same place, but the motion goes on.
Sometimes in storms these waves are
forty feet high, and travel fifty miles an
hour-more than twice as fast as the
swiftest steamer. The distance from

the height, hence wave five feet high
will extend over seventy-fve feet of
water. The force Of the dashing on Bell
Rock is said to be seventeen tons for each
square yard. Evaporation is a wonder
full power in drawing the water from the
sea. Every year layer of the entire
sea fourteen feet thick is taken up into
the clouds.
The winds bear their burden into the
land, and the water comes down in rain
upon the fields, to flow back at last
through rivers. The depth of the sea
presents an interesting problem. If the
Atlantic was lowered 1854 feet, the dis
lance from shore to shore would be half
as great, or 1900 miles. If lowered a
little more than three miles, say 10, $50
feet, there would be road of dry land
from Newfoundland to Ireland. This is
the plane on which the great Atlantic
cables were laid. The Mediterranean is
comparatively shallow. The drying up
Of ego feet would leave three different
seas, and Africa would be joined with
Italy. The British channel is more like a
pond, which accounts for its choppy
waves.
1t has been found difficult to get the
correct sounding of the Atlantic. A
midshipman of the navy overcame the
difficulty, and shot weighing thirty
pounds carries down the line. A hole is
bored through the sinker, through which
rod of iron is passed, moving easily
back and forth. In the end of the bar a
cup is dug and the inside coated with
orJ L., = 4. r.
and sling holds the shot on. When the
bar, which extends below the ball,
touches the earth, the sling unhooks and
the shot slides off. The lard in the end
of the bar holds some of the sand or
whatever may be on the bottom, and a
drop shuts over the cup to keep the water
from washing the sand out. When the
ground is reached shock is felt as if an
electric current has passed through the
line.-Oceau Wave.
